Sounds like a good plan.
My guess is this bump will get the OP checking to see if I answered the question.
Sorry, OP.

Pretty sure it's a CAT5 = 12k-16k per night.
Also, a resort fee daily
A quick call to SPG will answer all of the OP's questions.

I wouldn't call it "great" but reasonable prop. Definitely expensive. C&P are rarely available there (unless in lowest season). Good deal!^

Staying here right now (checked in today), and so far have been refused an alternative amenity by front desk staff for the resort fee ($35/day, includes internet). Am planning to speak with the manager later, but would appreciate any help the Lurkers can offer as well.

Hyperacusis -- can you comment on other aspects of your stay? My wife & I are heading here in March. How does the property look after the renovation? Service? Were you upgraded or had you booked the partial ocean view?
Thanks! Hope you have a great time.

Well that was quick. Got a call from somebody at the front desk (described himself as a senior front desk associate) who said he had taken care of the resort fee as a courtesy. And got an offer to upgrade us to a higher floor (we were initially upgraded to a 2nd floor pool/ocean view, with the ocean view obstructed by trees, and were offered a further upgrade to the 5th floor).
Good start to the stay.

-Can't speak to how it is today, but last Spring the property was in great shape post-renovations compared to before. I have stayed at the Westin many times over the years, but the renovations really did make a big difference. I ended up with a pretty clear comparison after I was there ~2 times in the months post renovation + ~2 times in the months prior to renovation.
-Service... can be hit or miss. There are some truly fantastic people, but it certainly has its fair share of duds.
